Why Choose Breaking Into Wall Street For Firms?

Breaking Into Wall Street is the first and only interactive financial modeling training platform that allows financial services professionals to master financial modeling and become more valuable to your firm, with self-paced learning and lifetime 365-day support to ensure that participants master concepts quickly and effectively, without straining your time or money or requiring professionals to be away from work for days at a time.

The Most Effective Way to Train Your Staff in the Art of Real-Life Financial Modeling Skills BIWS was created by bankers, for bankers, to help finance professionals learn real-life financial modeling skills. When your staff members enroll in our courses, they master immediately useful skills they can use on the job.Our training uses real-life case studies of actual companies such as Apple, Microsoft, JPMorgan, Exxon Mobil and more. We use real deals, such as Microsoft's proposed $44 billion acquisition of Yahoo!, and Exxon Mobil's $41 billion acquisition of XTO Energy, to teach all the concepts based on the real world, as opposed to textbook theory.

Eliminate the Training Productivity Drain Say goodbye to the missing hours and days that can be lost when you use traditional lecture-style training.BIWS offers 100% self-paced online training, which means that your staff can complete training outside their normal work hours or during their downtime, and you can manage training times when it suits your firm – not the trainer.

Uses the Proprietary B.A.S.E.S. Methodology for Faster Learning Many other training courses rely on a lecture format – watch the instructor discuss a topic, attempt to take notes or follow along the whole time, and then try to remember what you learned at the end… assuming that you did learn it the first time around.But lectures are not an effective way to teach complex concepts that require application of the material and practice. BIWS uses the proprietary B.A.S.E.S. Methodology, which allows students to integrate their new knowledge and skills much more quickly.

Here's how it works:

B is for Before: We show you the "Before" version of a model.

A is for After: We show you the "After" version of the model, with the required steps completed correctly.

S is for Study: You learn how the model is put together, by following along with detailed step-by-step video training.

E is for Execute: You build the model yourself.

S is for Scrutinize: You check your work against the "After" model.

The B.A.S.E.S. Methodology ensures that students do much more than just looking at a finished financial model – it teaches you to build the model yourself, step-by-step, and then check your work against a correct, finished version.

Lifetime Expert Support for Your StaffBIWS is the first and only provider to not only train your staff, but to also support your staff long after the fact – with updates, live Q&A, ongoing assessments and progress reporting.All our courses come with unlimited, lifetime 365-day support from our expert support team, each of whom has investment banking, private equity, or transaction advisory experience.
Your staff will receive support for as long as they remain with your firm, meaning that your own senior-level staff members don't need to be tied up helping team members with accounting, valuation or finance questions.

Track and Verify Progress with Challenging Certification TestsBIWS courses feature challenging tests that put participants through their paces once they have completed the course materials, and we provide certifications to staff members who successfully pass each test. Our quizzes test conceptual understanding and more advanced nuances.

Only BIWS Trains Your People and Tracks Progress, Without The Need For Extensive Management Oversight

Managers have told us they want three things from their training partner:

1. It must be effective at building high-level skills.

2. It must be accountable, so you know at a glance who has successfully acquired the skills.

1. Our training portal allows each trainee to thoroughly master content at their own individual pace, mark their progress and take notes along the way. Staff can’t just "sit through a few days of training". They actually have to acquire the skills that will add value to your firm.

2. Managers can tell at a glance which staff members have completed the training by simply checking who has been awarded certifications from our rigorous online testing.

3. All support and Q&A is handled by our expert team on an individualized basis. As a manager, all you really have to do is sign up, point your team members to our portal and wait for each staff member to pass our testing.

"Apologies for the late reply as I have been traveling for a bit and this email slipped down below.

The site was initially good fodder to read about analyst experiences and the adventures of different people a distance quite far away where I live. As posts became peppered with links to the training program (and I had switched to a new job that placed emphasis on finance), I was very skeptical initially on whether I needed to spend this much money (due to the high exchange rate in my local currency) despite the positive feedback.

But I'm glad to say that I have been proven wrong. Not only did the training modules help me understand finance in a simplistic way, they have also enabled me to develop an additional skill set, which I did not originally consider as an "asset." While primarily focused on the technical aspects of industry, the ability to utilize and develop this as a skill set has become crucial for industry executives like me, who would like to have well-rounded skills for overall career development.

I am truly glad to have signed up for the course and, without any hesitation, recommend this course to people I know."

"So here's my two cents:

As I work with due diligence of hedge fund managers, but with no financial background - never having traded or worked as an investment banking analyst, Breaking Into Wall Street has given me a very much-needed crash course in what the people on the opposite side of the table from me are looking at.

In this sense, I guess I'm a bit of an odd bird among your clients. Nevertheless, [the understanding your courses have provided me with] has been worth way more than the money spent.

The courses are created in a way that teaches precious hands-on knowledge from people who have successfully done this for a living. What I was after was not academically fluffy esoteric stuff, but something I could make use of as soon as the video clip ends.

You provided me with this in a way that even a beginner can understand and utilize, speeding up my process of becoming a professional in this field.

So many thanks for all the great stuff you have delivered so far, and I look forward to the things to come."
